10/3/2025.
Reports are that boost may may changed their T & C.
(Around 10/1/2025 . maybe, not clear)
Requiring activating phone and using service for some time.
(3 months?).
Do your research.
However, may not matter much as phone appears to be gone for good from boost website.
________________________________________________________________
You must activate the phone on boost network within 30 days of purchase.
If not you may be charged the full MSRP of the Device(s).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
best practice=open the phone. activate the boost account. make a call or 2. send a text or 2
phone call &/or text just insures the phone number has been fully registered on the boost network
while not entirely necessary, just to be safe.
and not get a $600 bill or get sent to collections
[ which has happened to at least one user on this thread ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
make sure u activate.
By checking this box I agree to e-transaction/e-signature, Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions. Once activated I authorize Boost Mobile to automatically charge my card monthly for my Boost Mobile services, taxes and surcharges. My service will not begin until my SIM is activated. If you do not activate your Device(s) on the Boost Mobile network within 30 days of purchase, you may be charged the full MSRP of the Device(s) (less your purchase price), if applicable, to the card used today or any alternative method. . I also agree to receive communications regarding this order via email, SMS, or phone call using the contact information provided

Buying multiple phones?
Consider this.
The first phone will be 120.
Subsequent phones (either purchased at same time on withing next few days) will be less.
Boost has a weird way of billing and its often confusion. No one has figured it out yet.
Many have made speculations:
For example. Below is from a user.
My first purchase cost me $125.90 in total then subsequently thereafter I purchased 2x more phones which came out to $94.84 each.
Since you bought the first phone at regular price, Boost treats any further purchases as an additional line since they're on the same account.
However, bear in mind Boost will automatically enable autopay again so be sure to disable it prior to your next billing cycle recurring.

I was able to order my phone 4 days ago, and it is arriving tomorrow.
If you plan on unlocking your bootloader and want to skip waiting 1 week for OEM unlock to be available, you need to skip everything during initial setup, don't connect to wifi or insert sim. setup developer mode, and OEM unlock will be available to toggle.
Can I relock the bootloader without bricking my phone If I do the following to my bootloader-unlocked phone:
1. I update taking only DISH WIRELESS channel updates, or
2. I do a full ROM (and bootloader and radio image) replacement (with RETUS A15 ROM from lollinet)?
I already know that I cannot relock the bootloader on my phone if I replace ROM with LineageOS.
Also, can anyone confirm that the most efficient order to do the following things to my phone is (first to last order):
1. Bootloader unlock (per Tip#2, above)
2. SIM unlock (after Bootloader unlock, but while still on the official DISH WIRELESS ROM, using one of the many services identified in this thread)
3. ROM Replacement (whether with DISH WIRELESS latest, RETUS A15, or LineageOS)?
Thanks in advance for any insight(s).

MOTOROLA WORLDWIDE UNLOCK - INSTANT
can I skip address secion?
1. Activate on boost and test calls/data/text
2. Insert non-boost sim card, enter 8 digit carrier unlock code during prompt
3. Remove any sim card, factory reset phone and skip all the steps during setup so you avoid connecting to the internet (this is important so that OEM unlocking is not greyed out in developer mode)
4. Tap build number 7 times in settings to enable Developer Options. enable USB debugging and OEM unlocking in developer options
5. Connect phone to adb on your pc and run command to generate bootloader code, submit code to motorola, then apply the bootloader unlock code motorola sent you along with the unlock command in adb. Phone will reset once again and reboot with an unlocked bootloader. You can now setup the phone as normal and connect it to service or the internet.
Software fix no longer works after going to RETUS 15 so I was going to manually flash another region just to see if I could change software channel.
Now the boost 15 is starting to roll out, might be moot.
went with this for 3 pack for $3.95.
not sure what i will get
(list as both hydrogel and tempered, so who knows)
eBay item number:365342745434
will pair with
the case already described
as many have said here on this thread.
forget tempered glass on curved screen . it just wont work.
the gel is ok.
i am using a poetic case with stand.
[Poetic Revolution Case for Motorola Moto Edge Plus 5G 2023[Not for 2022 Version],
[20FT Mil-Grade Drop Tested], Full-Body Shockproof Protective Cover with Kickstand and Built-in-Screen Protector, Black...used like new from amazon. $9]
a bit bulky, but i am fine with it and have used this case for previous phones
not really sure why i even bother with the gel.
never broke a screen in all the 10+ years i had a phone.
but still, makes me nervous to go with out a glass protector.
so this gel was the compromise.
even tho the glass on the screen "should be " pretty strong.
i used gel just to prevent scratch's when in pocket for example.
while we paid very little for the phone. it has good value and so i feel i should do my best to protect it
got A15 ~2 days ago
phone is ok for my needs and i see myself using it for ~ next 2 years
